Sparkles is an imprint event series happening in lieu of the traditional Sparks Literary Festival this year. In addition to three in-person events in St. John's in April, May, and July, we partnered with Rogers TV St. John's to create a video series titled "First Pages." The First Pages series features Memorial University Alumni being interviewed by current English students at Memorial. The interviews are followed by a reading. Additionally, we have our inaugral Writer in Residence reading, featuring Megan Gail Coles in conversation with faculty member and author Lisa Moore.
